Thou art He, O my God, Who hath raised me up at Thy behest,
and bidden me to occupy Thy seat, and to summon all men to the court of Thy
mercy. It is Thou Who hast commanded me to tell out the things Thou didst
destine for them in the Tablet of Thy decree and didst inscribe with the pen of
Thy Revelation, and Who hast enjoined on me the duty of kindling the fire of
Thy love in the hearts of Thy servants, and of drawing all the peoples of the
earth nearer to the habitation of Thy throne.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Prayers and
Meditations by Baha’u’llah’)
